 Mrs. Charles Keil, 8 German woman living at 366 Congress avenue, made an awful at tempt to commit suicide Saturday afternoon. Mrs. Keil is about 56 years old. Her hus- band is very ill and has been for some time; his life has been despaired of.

Between five and six o'clock she went into the kitchen from the bedroom where she had been faithfully watching her husband, and taking small box of matches from off the mantel proceed ed to dissolve the phosphorus in teacup of brandy. This done she raised the cup to her lips and emptied it of it's contents. She went back into the bedroom. As the poi sonous concoction did not take immediate ef- feet she look the fruit knife with which she cut up the phosphorus and plunged it into her throat three times. AS she did this last act she was kneeling beside the bedside of her husband, and her groans and screams were heard by the neighbors. She was found with her arms around the neck of her husband Dr. Reilly was soon there and found the woman under the influence of the poison; he worked over her for some time, but could not revive her; he found that the cuts in her throat were only superficial, be- ing inflicted with dull knife. He sent for the police ambulance and the unfortunate woman was taken to the hospital.
 At the hospital antidotes were admins tered Last nigh. the hospital physician said she was about the same; her recovery is very doubtful. yet it is thought there is nc immediate danger. The husband of the woman has been saloon keeper on Congress avenue; he is about 50 years old

 From the above it will be seen that the re- ceipts this year exceeded those of last by $329. 80. The fair had two bad days last year, Thursday and Friday, while this year tie weather got in it's work on Tuesday and Wednesday.
 In addition to the &, ,836.2 27 gate receipts, other sources of revenue this year were: Membership tickets, $468; privileges, $700; speed entries, $566, making total of 2 ,67O 27, to which should be added the $2, 800 appro- priation by the State, making a grand total of $1O, 170.27. The expenses estima ed by Secretary Andross at not far from $9, 900, which amount includes $3, 500 for premiums, $500 for hay, $500 for carpenter work, $75 for postage, $50 for band, $150 for dinners, $400 for printing, $115 for advertising, $400 for salaries, $150 for gate tenders, ticket sell lers, etc., $115 for police and miscellaneous expenses that cannot now be ascertained.
 The estimate of expenses appears pretty high at &, ,00O, but it is thought to be about right. Last year the expenses outside of premiums were $3, ,655.08. The premiums amounted to &, ,924.25, as against $3, 500 this year, but this season $1 ,000 rent is paid the Meriden Park company, which nearly offsets the decrease in premiums. The actual out- ing, were $857923. Added to last years account was a balance of $4 ,660. 88 from 1885, enabling the payment of $3, ,615 for the new building. After last years fair there was balance of but $1 ,019.08. This balance add ed to the estimated of something over $1 ,000 this year will leave about $2, ,000 on hand after paying all expenses.
